RIGHT REAR DOOR, ACTUATOR SWITCH MAKING A HORRIBLE NOISE. SOMETIMES THE DOOR WILL NOT LOCK AT ALL. I HAVE READ OF LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF OTHER HONDA CRV'S THAT DO THE SAME THING AND HONDA SHOULD STAND BEHIND THIS DEFECT INSTEAD OF IGNORING IT. THEY SHOULD LIVE UP TO THEIR REPUTATION! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STRUCTURE:BODY:DOOR
THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS AFTER MAIN LOCK BUTTON IS PUSHED ON INTERIOR OF DRIVER'S DOOR AS WELL AS ON THE KEY FOB. ALL OTHER LOCKS CAN EASILY LOCK/UNLOCK MANUALLY EXCEPT THIS DOOR. IT SEEMS TO BE STUCK UNTIL THE BUTTON ON DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR IS PUSHED TO LOCK. BUT ALMOST INSTANTLY, IT WILL UNLOCK AGAIN. ANYTIME THE CAR IS DRIVEN PAST 9MPH, THE CAR KEEPS TRYING TO LOCK ALL THE DOORS MAKING AN ANNOYING NOISE. *TR

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR KEPT LOCKING ON ITS OWN AUTOMATICALLY AND IMMEDIATELY EVERY TIME I UNLOCKED IT. AFTER A FEW MONTHS, REAR RIGHT PASSENGER DOOR MAKES LOUD SOUND EVERY TIME I LOCK THE DOORS, SCARED A KID IN THE VEHICLE AS IT HAPPENED UNEXPECTEDLY. DEALERS DIDN'T MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT SAFETY ISSUES, REPLACED THE FIRST ONE FOR $250 PLUS LABOR CHARGE AND HAVE ASKED ME TO GET THE CAR FOR SERVICING AGAIN TO SEE IF THE SECOND ONE NEEDS TO BE CHANGED AS WELL. I HAVE HAD REGULAR MAINTENANCE SINCE BUYING THE CAR. I LOOKED UP ONLINE AND FOUND OUT ABOUT MULTIPLE CASES WITH ACTUATOR PROBLEMS WITH CRV MODELS BUT HONDA NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY TO REPLACE OR RECALL TO FIX DEFECTIVE ACTUATORS DESPITE BEING AWARE OF THE DEFECTS. CLASS ACTION SUITS HAVE BEEN FILED BY PEOPLE AS IT IS CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES BUT HONDA STILL NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY, NOT SURE WHAT YOU CAN DO TO MAKE THEM TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. *TR

REAR RIGHT DOOR LOCKS ITSELF APPROXIMATELY 1/2 SECOND AFTER UNLOCKING, WHETHER VIA ELECTRIC SWITCH OR BY MANUALLY PUSHING THE UNLOCK LEVER. I CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS EGRESS IS ONLY POSSIBLE BY A PRECISELY-TIMED, TWO-STEP PROCESS: UNLOCK THE DOOR AND RAPIDLY ACTUATE THE DOOR HANDLE. THE COMPONENT DOES NOT FAIL-SAFE; IT FAILS INTO AN UNSAFE MODE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON AUGUST 8, 2014 MY CR-V WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE AND THEY CAME AND JUMPED THE BATTERY. I TOOK THE VEHICLE AND HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST RAN ON THE BATTERY AND BOTH THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WERE CHARGING. ON AUGUST 19, 2014, MY CR-V WOULD NOT START FOR THE 2ND TIME. THIS TIME I TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP AND HAD THE BATTERY,STARTER AND ALTERNATOR DIAGNOSTIC CHECK DONE, ALL WERE CHARGING AND WORKING WITHOUT INCIDENT.THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE BATTERY CABLES WERE LOOSE, SO HE TIGHTENED THEM. ON AUGUST 23, 2014 MY CR-V WOULD NOT START FOR THE 3RD TIME. I AM COMPLETELY AT A LOSS AND DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE. *TR

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), SERVICE BRAKES
THE VEHICLE HAD ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH ILLUMINATED. IT LOST ITS ABS AND VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL. IT DID NOT CAUSE ANY DAMAGE TO US SINCE THE ROAD WAS NOT THAT CROWDED. AFTER THAT WE ALWAYS HAD TO KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE. GOT INSPECTED AT HONDA SHOWROOM AND THEY FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE STABILITY MODULATOR WAS NOT WORKING AND IT WOULD COST $2000 TO HAVE IT FIXED. *TR

MY 2007 HONDA CR-V, PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER UNLOCK BY THE MAIN LOCK/UNLOCK SWITCH, KEY FOB OR THE MANUAL TAB IN THE DOOR. WE HAVE TO BE VERY PRECISE IN UNLOCKING AND PULLING THE DOOR AT THE SAME TIME. EVEN A SECOND DELAY COULD BRING THE BOOR BACK IN TO UNLOCK POSITION. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS IN CASE OF FIRE OR ACCIDENT AS THE PASSENGER CAN NOT UNLOCK AND ESCAPE FROM THE VEHICLE. PLEASE LOOK IN TO IT. THANKS *TR

THE DOORLOCKS ARE HAVING A NUMBER OF PROBLEMS. THE DOORS BEGAN UNLOCKING THEMSELVES SHORTLY AFTER LOCKING THEM. THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WON'T STAY LOCKED, THE RIGHT REAR DOOR IS FROZEN IN THE LOCKED POSITION AND THE DOOR IS UNUSABLE, THE DRIVER REAR DOOR STAYS IN THE UNLOCKED POSITION, AND THE REAR HATCH WON'T UNLOCK; THEREFORE, IT WON'T OPEN. AT THIS POINT, TWO OF MY DOORS WON'T OPEN AND THE LOCKS CONTINUOUSLY TRY LOCKING OVER AND OVER AS I DRIVE UNDER APPROXIMATELY 10MPH. AS I SEARCH THE INTERNET I SEE MULTIPLE PEOPLE WITH THE SAME PROBLEMS, BUT MY FEAR IS MY FAMILY GETTING TRAPPED IN THIS CAR IF THE LOCKS SEIZE AND WON'T ALLOW PASSENGERS TO EGRESS THE VEHICLE. I HOPE IT DOESN'T TAKE AN UNFORTUNATE EVENT FOR SOMEONE TO STEP UP AND TAKE NOTICE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM. *TR

I HAVE OWNED THE CAR SINCE AUGUST 3, 2007. ONLY SUPERIOR HONDA AND JEFF WYLER HONDA HAS SERVICED MY CAR. JULY, 1, 2014 THE STARTER MADE A CLICKING NOISE ESPECIALLY WHEN FIRST STARTING THE CAR IN THE MORNING. JEFF WYLER JUST GAVE ME A STATEMENT FROM HONDA CORPORATION OFFICE STATING THAT IF A CUSTOMER COMPLAINS ABOUT A CLICKING NOISE DO NOT BOTHER TO FIX IT. THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO IT IS A QUIRK WITH THE STARTER RELAY SYSTEM. JUST TELL THEM TO TURN THE KEY FASTER. I HAVE TURNED MY KEY THE SAME WAY FOR THE PAST 7 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS SOUND. IF THIS IS A "KNOWN" QUIRK SINCE 2001 THEN WHY DON'T THEY GET AN ENGINEER TO DESIGN A NEW STARTER. I AM SURE THE STARTER IS GOING BAD IN THE CAR. IT NEVER DID THIS BEFORE, BUT THE SERVICE MANAGER AT PERFORMANCE HONDA WHICH I TOOK IT TO AT THE ADVICE OF THE CASE MANAGER AT HONDA CORPORATION TOLD ME HE COULD MAKE ALL THE HONDAS ON HIS LOT MAKE THE SAME SOUND. GOD FORBID IF YOU HAD A DISABILITY AND COULD NOT TURN YOUR KEY FAST ENOUGH YOU WOULD NEVER GET YOUR CAR STARTED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. IF THEY REPLACE MY STARTER THEY TELL ME IT WILL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT WHY DID THIS ONLY START HAPPENING NOW? I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR MORE THAN 15 MILES FROM HOME. I WANT TO VISIT MY DAUGHTER IN FLORIDA WHO IS IN THE NAVY, BUT I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR THAT FAR. *JS

DRIVERS AND PASSENGER SIDE DOORS WILL AUTOMATICALLY RELOCK EVERYTIME YOU UNLOCK THE DOORS. IT STARTED WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR, THEN A FEW WEEKS LATER, THE PASSENGER DOOR. TO UNLOCK DOORS YOU HAVE TO PHYSICALLY HIT UNLOCK BUTTON, THEN YOU HAVE HALF A SECOND TO GET DOOR OPEN BEFORE IT LOCKS AGAIN ON ITS OWN. THE WHOLE CAR BE UNLOCKED BUT YOU CAN'T GET INTO THE FRONT DOORS. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, BECAUSE IF I WERE IN AN ACCIDENT OR HAD SOME KIND OF EMERGENCY, THE FRONT DOORS WOULDN'T UNLOCK OR OPEN LONG ENOUGH TO GET OUT. MY KIDS HAVE A PROBLEM GETTING OUT, SO I WON'T LET THEM SIT IN FRONT SEAT ANYMORE. HOPING THAT THE BACK DOORS DON'T START ACTING UP. DOING RESEARCH ON THIS, I SEE THAT HONDA HAS HAD CLASS ACTION LAW SUITS FILED ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM, AND MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. ON ONE SITE IT SAYS THEY HAD A RECALL ON THIS IN LATE 2012, BUT I HAVEN'T SEEN ANY THING ELSE ABOUT A RECALL. *TR

2007 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DOOR LOCK ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DOORS LOCKED AS SOON AS HE CLOSED THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE ONLY WAY TO GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE WAS BY TAKING THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION SWITCH AND USING THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON THE KEY. HOWEVER, TWO SECONDS LATER, IT LOCKED AGAIN. *JB

THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK BEGAN OPENING WHEN THE CAR WAS OPERATING. AS I UNDERSTAND IT, THE PROPER OPERATION OF THE CAR'S CRASH SAFETY EQUIPMENT REQUIRES THE DOORS TO REMAIN LOCKED DURING OPERATION. FURTHER, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO LOCK THIS DOOR, EVEN MANUALLY. I ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE CAR CANNOT BE LOCKED WHEN STOPPED. I HAVE NOT YET TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. *TR
